tabprincess Posted November 4, 2021 #1 Share Posted November 4, 2021 I have always carried on some soft drinks and am wondering if anyone has done so recently? I thought I read somewhere that you cannot bring any plastic bottles any longer, but I can't find the reference anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisinFinsUp Posted November 4, 2021 #2 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Its in the passenger contract. There is a sample on the Princess website, but you can check yours in your cruise personalizer. https://www.princess.com/legal/passage_contract/pcl.html Guests are also prohibited from bringing water, sodas and other non-alcoholic beverages on board that are packaged in bottles. A small quantity of non-alcoholic beverages (i.e., sparkling water, sodas, juice, milk) packaged in cans or cartons may be brought on board on embarkation day, only if carried on in Guests’ hand luggage (not in checked luggage). A small quantity is considered a maximum of 12 sealed, unopened cans/cartons of 12 ounces each or less per person. Guests will be asked to discard open beverages in plastic containers prior to boarding. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we can not give our soft drinks in a box ( marked & tagged) to give to the porters with our checked luggage????? Just seems kind of awkward & heavy the way they want you to do it now. ??? Do they think the porters @ the terminal are over worked or the ship’s crew?????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you do it as a carry-on & carry them on yourself or with checked luggage & given to the porters @ the terminal??? Either way thanks for letting us know, Grace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asingl Posted November 4, 2021 #6 Share Posted November 4, 2021 On the Grand Princess right now. Checked in a dozen sodas and a dozen Arrowhead water bottles. Packed them all in a suitcase and stapled a luggage tag on! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Waynetor Posted November 4, 2021 #8 Share Posted November 4, 2021 I'd like to know if anyone that has done a recent B2B has brought on packs for the multiple voyages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought we were not supposed to check in or give to the porter those canned soft drinks, like we have always done in the past. Thanks for letting me know. We will do the same 😛 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way thanks for letting us know, Grace We never give anything to the porters. We are strictly carry on/off. Each of the 2 -12 packs were attached to our luggage with bungee cords. One 12 pack on hers and one 12 pack on mine. Went through the x-ray as 4 separate items (2 suitcases and 2 drink packages). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers On our last B2B, we brought on board with us 4 -12 pack cans of Coke. 2 for each segment. No one batted an eye. I had our itinerary out to prove the B2B sailing if anyone wanted to inquire. No one did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you have them in foldable duffel bag, with a luggage tag or did you put them in a cardboard box with a luggage tag on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRUISEWITHH Posted November 5, 2021 #15 Share Posted November 5, 2021 It really depends on what port you board. We've been stopped in L.A. for little things and not bothered in Honolulu when we boarded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
